"Pray" - a letter I received from a rightwinger

[Christa]

I apologize for the caps, as I am copying it from the letter:

II Chron. 7:14
AFTER A DAY OF CONTEMPLATION AND SOUL SEARCHING, I HAVE DECIDED TO REACH OUT TO MY FRIENDS AND RELATIVES AND ASK YOU TO DO SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN TROUBLING ME FOR A LONG TIME.

OUR NATION IS/HAS BEEN ON THE SLIPPERY SLOPE TO HELL FOR A LONG TIME. IF YOU LOOK AROUND YOU WILL FIND CORRUPTION, GREED, MORAL DECAY AND A STEADY MOVE AWAY FROM THE THINGS THAT MADE US GREAT.
THE PRINCIPLES UPON WHICH THIS NATION WAS FOUNDED ARE NO LONGER OUR BACKBONE. HOWEVER, WE CAN REVERSE THIS TREND.

IN GOD'S WORD HE STATES,"IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SIN AND HEAL THEIR LAND."

I AM CONVINCED THAT WE MUST PRAY FOR OUR NATION AND ITS LEADERS AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS. SO I ASK YOU TO JOIN ME IN THIS PLEA TO OUR LORD.

WOULD YOU PLEASE SEND THIS TO AT LEAST 25 PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS BOOK, (SEND IT TO ALL OF THEM). ASK THEM TO PRAY EVERYDAY. 25 TO THE 5TH POWER IS 9,765,625 PEOPLE. IMAGINE IF EACH PERSON REACHES TEN OTHERS.

IF YOU DO AND THEY COMPLY, WE WILL LIFT UP MILLIONS OF PRAYERS A DAY TO OUR CREATOR. HE WILL HEAR US AND IN FAITH WILL ANSWER.


Let me just add a quote from Ronald Reagan - "If we ever forget
that we're one nation under God, then we will be a nation gone
under." I truly believe this is why the United States of America is
in the shape we are in today. Most people have forgotten that we
are ONE NATION UNDER GOD! Let us as Christians stand up and remind people of this. ~ Have a Blessed Day!

1. Can't figure why people post emails from RWers in entirety and without comment

unless it is to further disseminate drivel. And as yet, no one making such posts has bothered to explain it to me. Still, I remain hopeful.

3. Thank you

Since it is going well in secular countries, the evangelical collapse cannot come soon enough, imo.

6. Interesting article

I spent most of the time reading it thinking "I hope so!"

4. "Let me just add a quote from Ronald Reagan"

The divorced guy who lied about selling arms to our enemies?

5. THE PRINCIPLES UPON WHICH THIS NATION WAS FOUNDED

Such as slavery?
